Augering Services in Benicia

Plumbing issues can be tough to deal with, especially clogs. Many questions arise when dealing with plumbing problems, so if you’re asking yourself what augering is, you’re not the only one. 

Plumbing is not everyone’s forte; that’s why hiring a professional plumber can alleviate your problems. When you need hardworking, trusted plumbers, contact the experts at Oak Plumbing when battling your drains. With over 20 years of experience, we are reliable experts in all plumbing services. 

When it comes to fixing clogged drains, there are three main methods of getting the job done. Drain/toilet augering, drain snaking, and hydro jetting are the three most utilized methods used by plumbers to clear out clogs and blockages in your drain. During these scenarios, it’s recommended to contact a professional plumber. 

Toilet Augering

Toilet augering uses a long metal pole with a metal cable connected. One end of the toilet auger has a corkscrew-like connection, and a handle that you spin on the other end. This method is most commonly performed on toilets.

The drill spins as it moves through the pipe and breaks up any debris or blockages in its path. Afterward, debris is flushed down the drain by running water.

Most Trusted Plumbers in Benicia

Drain augering and snaking are both effective ways of clearing out blocked drains. Each has its advantages and disadvantages that should be considered when deciding which method to use for your particular situation. 

Drain augering is great for any size pipe since it uses an auger that can reach further than a snake cable, but it also requires more time and effort since it needs water pressure from an outside source to flush out debris after breaking it up. 

On the other hand, snaking is quicker and easier than drain augering but isn’t suitable for large pipes due to its limited reach and power. In short, both methods have pros and cons; it depends on your specific situation which one will be best suited for you!
